► ABOUT THE FILM
With The Voice of Hind Rajab, six-year-old Palestinian Hind Rajab regains her voice. Director Kaouther Ben Hania reconstructs the shocking, true events surrounding her death using the original phone calls between Hind and emergency services. An urgent, confrontational, and unique cinematic experience.
On January 29, 2024, volunteers from the Red Crescent receive an emergency call. A six-year-old girl, Hind Rajab, is trapped in a car under fire in Gaza and pleads for help. While the responders try to keep her on the line, they do everything in their power to get an ambulance to her. But without permission from the Israeli military, no vehicle can be allowed through. They wait for hours for a response, but in the end, all help arrives too late. Hind’s voice remains as a testimony. The scenes in the emergency call center are reconstructed and staged based on eyewitness reports and transcripts; the voices on the recordings are real. Kaouther Ben Hania: “This story is about our shared responsibility (…) and how the silence of the world is part of the violence.”
Reminder: film with a short introduction starts at 19.00 sharp!
